The 2014 Conference Theme is "
*“The New Learner – Transforming Education” *In a culture of constant
change, openness to sharing, and the world at their fingertips, our
students are learning differently and they are less likely to be responsive
to past practices of passive learning. With growing access to the digital
world, our students’ learning is no longer confined to the classroom. Rapid
and continuous evolution of technology has created a new learner who must
be able to adapt, innovate, and think creatively – a skill set that is
becoming increasingly more important to career success as it is highly
sought after by employers. These learners differ from previous cohorts –
demographically, technologically, experientially, and they are seeking
learning that is customized, connected, amplified, authentic, relevant, and
resilient.
How can educators prepare students to compete in an ever-changing
innovation-driven environment shaped by new and future technologies? In
what ways do learners’ increased technological agency promote, frustrate or
change our pedagogy? Are educators prepared to be part of that learning
space and be the guides and partners to this new way of learning and
teaching?
